Abstract

No reproductive studies have been performed with enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) for Fabry disease (FD, OMIM 301500), a lysosomal storage disorder. Therefore, use during pregnancy is theoretically contraindicated. We report the first case of agalsidase beta treatment throughout pregnancy. High-range proteinuria remained stable and the patient gave birth to a healthy boy after an uncomplicated pregnancy. The decision to administer ERT during pregnancy should be made on an individual basis, considering the FD status and possible risks.
